Scarlet DarknessOktoberfest Costumes for Women 3 Pcs Bavarian Dirndl Dresses

Nicely constructed and very pretty. I have sewn for over 40 years and was thrilled to find a garment with such well-made construction. Thankful I didn't have to make it myself for a change. Will wear this every year to our local Oktoberfest events. Received many compliments.

The dress is pretty. The green piping and embroidery really stand out against the black. The dress is cotton not polyester so that is a plus but the material is pretty thin. The blouse is a half blouse not a full. The small was just a bit too tight so I returned for a medium which is a bit too big but much more comfortable. It comes very wrinkled so trying to figure out the best fit at to address that. For a costume it is fine and price was reasonable.

I am amazed at how well this entire outfit was made. The detail and material are top notch. Even has a beautiful long zipper on the one side. This is the real deal! I wore it for a Halloween party this evening and got lots of compliments. It truly was a great outfit at a low price. I’m a true size 10, or Medium, (5’ 8”), but I read many reviews and went with a Large which fit beautifully.

Easy care, wash on delicate cycle and either drip dry or delicate dry. Material is light weight, so perfect for summer German festival. I wear a 38 GG have a 45 inch bust 33 waist and the 3XL was a perfect fit. I spilled spatzle and gravy on the apron at event, was able to use hand soap and water in bathroom to remove stain it dried quickly under hand dryer and was good for pictures in 30 minutes. The embroidery is beautiful and the colors are very bright. Perfect summer dress!

I bought this dress to wear at a popular local Oktoberfest celebration, in Mount Angel, Oregon, and also wore it at an Oktoberfest-themed dance at the resort I was staying at the same weekend. I got lots of complements on how great it looked, including several from other women at the celebration who were wearing equally nice Bavarian style dresses. At the dance, I won the costume contest!The cloth and construction are on a par with daily wear clothing. Certainly not just cheap costume wear! So definitely a good investment, in a garment I can expect to re-use many times. Add thigh high stockings, a floral hair decoration, and black Mary Jane shoes, and a ruffled petticoat to hold the skirt out a bit, and you're all set!Negative points:As others mentioned, even if you follow their size guide, it does run small. I have a 44" bust (38C) and a 35" waist, and the 2XL size just barely fit in the waist, and was snug at the bust. There's no way the dress would have fit a woman with a 39-40.5" waist, or a bust larger than 45". Likewise, the crop top blouse was only barely big enough for me to get it on and off. Everything looked spectacular on me once I got it on, but if I was any larger at all, I would have had to return it for a 3XL. The dress has a side zipper on the left side, which was probably easier to use than a back zipper would have been on such a tight-fitted bodice. But zipping it was awkward, and the zipper got stuck at the narrowest point of the waist, and was difficult to move part that point, going either up or down. Not because the waist was tight, though. It sticks there even when I'm not wearing it!I bought two of these (also got it in blue), and both dresses and blouses had identical problematic points. Still, if the fit was closer to their size guide, and the zipper worked smoothly, I would have rated it at 5 stars. Gave it four, because of the problems noted.

This outfit fit as expected. I got an XL. The material is good quality and I got tons of compliments. Would def recommend and will be wearing again next year! Also washed well and steams out beautifully.

It was way smaller than the size. Was not able to use it

Too small
